How could I not? For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Julie. I’m a perinatal mental health therapist (or “therapist for moms”) in Washington State + a toddler mom. I am also the founder of Nurturing the Sisterhood, a support community that teaches moms to deal with the overwhelming status of motherhood. I challenge the dominant social narrative around being a mom and honor the reality that it’s different & harder than we expect it to be. I’m a mental health advocate and teach through my own story as a mom who experiences anxiety + share my experiences with fertility care, a high risk pregnancy, and birth trauma. I like to share my life as a mom who is working in the grey area and how I cope with being a food allergy mom. My goal is to foster a community of moms who honor the reality of mother, to provide helpful resources, and to share mental health tips for moms. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6430c29e69b0cb55fef7e9be/bbbc133f-de46-4158-91a2-5cc504f0376e/pets+doc+talk The Sisterhood Blog | Mental Health & Perinatal Support in WA - Curate Your Social Media Feed: 10 Instagram Accounts to Support Your Motherhood Journey - #5 - Dr. Mona Amin @pedsdoctalk Dr. Mona is a pediatrician and IBLC who wears so many hats - she’s a mom to two littles, she is a practicing pediatrician, and she provides SO MUCH education on her social media accounts and on her podcast. I appreciate the way she shares her medical knowledge with compassion + takes a neutral, science-based stance on hot button issues like sleep training and napping. My own story as a birth trauma survivor resonates with her own + she’s my go-to resource when I have a general question about milestones, vaccinations, feeding, etc. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6430c29e69b0cb55fef7e9be/479ab245-69fa-47c6-834b-d14be5b87793/%22poppy+therapy%22+Molly+vas+Bertolucci The Sisterhood Blog | Mental Health & Perinatal Support in WA - Curate Your Social Media Feed: 10 Instagram Accounts to Support Your Motherhood Journey - #6 - Molly Vasa Bertolucci - @poppy.therapy Molly is a professional expert in birth trauma & the experience of being a NICU Mom + a NICU mom herself (so she gets it). She’s the founder of Poppy Therapy & supports postpartum moms as a maternal mental health therapist in Long Beach, CA. Her podcast is one of my favorites because it gives moms the chance to tell their story about the first year of motherhood. I love listening to the stories & finding ways to relate to the other moms. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6430c29e69b0cb55fef7e9be/7e3441ca-414b-4597-97ea-85253d02accd/Image+1-7-24+at+12.41+PM.jpg The Sisterhood Blog | Mental Health & Perinatal Support in WA - Curate Your Social Media Feed: 10 Instagram Accounts to Support Your Motherhood Journey - #7 - Dr. Brita DeStafano - @progressthroughplay Dr. Brita is a board certified pediatric physical therapist and founder of Progress Through Play in Denver, Colorado who's been my go-to account everything to do with baby milestones since J was a newborn. I’ve learned so much from her, including the way his tongue tie likely impacted some of his development. She provides an incredible amount of education to mothers in the online space with the compassionate perspective of a mother whose child’s tongue ties impacted her postpartum journey. Her education on early intervention helped me speak up for J when he was a tiny baby. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6430c29e69b0cb55fef7e9be/d6d67dcb-e994-4981-b605-0154ca78d752/Tiffany+Cosleepy The Sisterhood Blog | Mental Health & Perinatal Support in WA - Curate Your Social Media Feed: 10 Instagram Accounts to Support Your Motherhood Journey - #8 - Tiffany Belanger - @cosleepy Tiffany is a safe cosleeping educator an amazing resource for bed sharing families (like mine). Although she reminds us that bed sharing can never be 100% safe, she provides expert guidance on everything from testing the mattress to blanket usage. I found Tiffany’s account when I decided to start bed sharing at 5-months postpartum, and I’ve continue to check in for support throughout the toddler years. I recommend that all parents (even those who don’t plan on bed sharing) take note of her lessons because most new parents end up bed sharing at some point in their parenting journey (even if it’s by mistake). It’s so much more than the “Safe Seven”! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6430c29e69b0cb55fef7e9be/ab2d8bfa-3fcf-4136-8e4b-74d554b2cff7/Image+1-9-24+at+9.28+AM.jpg The Sisterhood Blog | Mental Health & Perinatal Support in WA - Curate Your Social Media Feed: 10 Instagram Accounts to Support Your Motherhood Journey - #9 - Lisa McCarty - @lbmccarty717 Lisa is a writer & women’s health advocate who is passionate about providing a safe and supportive space to inspire and help to inform women over age 30 on infertility, maternal health, breast health and mental health. She’s also candid about her own struggles with infertility and draws on her powerful story to make a real difference for women who are struggling with infertility. I am continually struck by her ability to share the hardest parts of her experiences with struggling to conceive and birth trauma. This includes the reality that its impact doesn’t stop after childbirth. Her recent HuffPost article tells her story and urges women everywhere to trust their intuition, know their body and discuss risks with their medical providers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6430c29e69b0cb55fef7e9be/c83870f8-e389-4309-893f-a81624f87f43/Image+1-9-24+at+9.34+AM.jpg The Sisterhood Blog | Mental Health & Perinatal Support in WA - Curate Your Social Media Feed: 10 Instagram Accounts to Support Your Motherhood Journey - #10 Rachael Shepard-Ohta, @heysleepybaby Rachael is a laid black attachment-based sleep educator who says “no” to sleep training & many other aspects of the dominant narrative around parenting & childcare in the United States. She favors attachment-focused approaches like baby wearing and contact napping. She also shares her daily grind as a mom of three in San Francisco. Rachael’s account is one of the first I followed when my son started having sleep issues, and I learned a lot about the way temperament impacts sleep from her. She helped me to feel normal when my highly sensitive child couldn’t handle even the slowest sleep training approach. Something I appreciate about her is that she’s honest about trying sleep training with her first child, which is something many parents do before finding out that there’s another way (myself included!). I’m really loving her new podcast, No One Told Us, as well. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6430c29e69b0cb55fef7e9be/1699828840973-PDOYPLGQTNLP782CONVL/image-asset.jpeg The Sisterhood Blog | Mental Health & Perinatal Support in WA - Curate Your Social Media Feed: 10 Instagram Accounts to Support Your Motherhood Journey - THROUGH THICK AND THIN NEWSLETTER Join the Sisterhood!

Whether you’re navigating holiday expectations, postpartum identity shifts, or the invisible mental load that comes with parenting, you don’t have to do it alone. I work with women across Seattle, Bellevue, Renton, Tacoma, Bainbridge Island, and all of Washington State to create space for honesty, self-compassion, and healing. Therapy with me is down-to-earth, affirming, and centered on helping you feel more connected — to yourself, your values, and your family. If you're looking for a therapist who truly gets the lived experience of motherhood, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
